Appearances | BS1
Belle is usually either at Fort Ivern or the Lost Empire.
Meeting La Belle
To reach Cinderella you will have to travel to the northern part of Fort Ivern because that’s where the Gate of the Lost Empire is located.
On your way there you will eventually reach a fog, and after you pass through it you will see Belle with her back turned towards you. She won’t say much and she won’t fight you – she will call you “filthy undead”, and say that your kind isn’t welcome at lady Cinderella’s ball.
According to her undead are not alive, therefore they can’t be dancing with demonbeasts.
After saying that Belle will leave and you will be forced to fight the Knight in Armor.
The Lost Empire Encounters
Belle will appear as soon as you enter the Lost Empire. She will tell you again that you’re an uninvited guest, and that she doesn’t know nor care about what struggles you went through to get there – she says you will not meet Cinderella.
Belle will tell you to turn back because only those summoned to the ball may enter the castle, so if you continue “prepare to bath your flesh in the baptism of the Lost Empire.”.
Upon further exploring the Lost Empire you will find a bonfire, and next to the bonfire, there will be a fog you can go through. When you go through the fog you will be in a tight passage, and Belle will be at the end of it.
Belle will say how she warned you and yet you still don’t plan on quitting.
She says “Lady Cinderella is establishing a demonbeast kingdom. The world where everyone can live by their dreams.”, so it’s too late for your kind to turn because there’s no place for you, the undead, in the “lady’s utopia”.
A demonbeast will appear behind you and you will get into a fight with Belle.
Belle isn’t an enemy that’s difficult to defeat, considering you were able to reach the Lost Empire. Cinderella granted her power but that wasn’t enough it seems, so after defeating her she will ask you for mercy, vowing to never stand in your way again.
You will have three options – you can either kill her, send her to the basement, or let her go.
Killing Belle will obviously kill her and you will get her fairytale – Beauty and Beast. But if you decide to let her go then she will thank you and say how she shall leave the country at once, but unfortunately, that idea will be shortlived as she will be hanged at a certain previous part of the Lost Empire.
A message in the blood is written next to her dead body – “No one can escape from the ball”. And next to her, there will be the Beauty and Beast fairytale.
Personality
La Belle is devoted to protecting Cinderella and she acts as her guardian. She’s compassionate and loyal, but even so, she will warn you multiple times before heading straight to fight you. In a cruel world that’s Elysium, maybe she’s too kind towards the player. Just like her looks, her personality is equally sweet.
Design
Beauty La Belle, living up to her name has a very nice curvy body that’s covered by some kind of white robes. She also has beautiful long blonde hair that perfectly goes together with her cute mean face. Her eyes are blue and her forehead is hidden behind her bangs.
